New cosmology model shows relativity in universal time and

distant observations in Euclidean geometry

It is natural to think of space as finite but without edges. The simplest geometry that eliminates the edges of a structure is a sphere, and to close a three-dimensional space we need a 4-sphere, the surface of a four-dimensional ball. Describing space as the surface of a four-dimensional sphere contracting and expanding in the direction of the 4-radius gives a view of closed dynamic space where relativistic phenomena appear as consequences of the zero-energy balance in the structure. Instead of being defined as a physical constant the velocity of light appears as the velocity of space in the fourth dimension. The rest energy of mass appears as the energy of motion that mass possesses due to the motion of space and the time-like line element, cdt , in Minkowski space and Schwarzschild metrics shows the distance the 4-radius of space increases in time differential dt .

The spherical geometry together with the changing velocity of light in dynamic, spherical space converts distant observations into Euclidean geometry. Clocks in motion or subject to local gravitational interaction do not lose time because time is distorted; they actually run slower as a result of their state of motion and gravitation in space. The Dynamic Universe model(1) based on the balance of the energies of motion and gravitation in spherically closed space gives precise mathematical expression to relativistic effects and cosmological observations and shows the energy build-up and release of space as a continuous dynamic process from infinity in the past to infinity in the future.

Introduction n 1917 Einstein came very close to proposing a spherical space closed through the fourth dimension and he suggested that the volume of space should be calculated as the volume of the

“surface” of a four-dimensional sphere, V = 2π2R3 (2). At cosmology level, such geometry would give a perfect view of continuous homogeneous space with no location in a special position relative to the rest of space. However, space as the surface of a 4-sphere requires the fourth dimension to be considered a purely geometrical dimension not a “time- like” dimension as suggested by the theory of relativity. Furthermore, Einstein was looking for a static model; in order to remain in static state the 4-sphere required a cosmological constant to offset the gravitation of the structure.

The choice made in the theory of relativity left the question of overall geometry of space unanswered and the fourth dimension was linked to time as a “time-like” dimension without direct spatial geometrical meaning.

If the choice had been made ten years later, after the findings of Edward Hubble, the result would have been different. The was no basis to look for static space, in fact, space as the surface of a 4-sphere expanding along the 4-radius had immediately explained the Hubble law which by assuming a linear Doppler effect related the recession velocity v ( )v c<< of stellar objects to their distance D as

0v zc H D= = (1)

where 0H is the Hubble constant and z is the redshift of the radiation received from the object. Assuming space as the surface of a 4-sphere of radius 4R , a distance in space can be expressed as the length of the arc along the curved space as 4 D Rα= (2)

where α is the angle between the object and the observer in space. If the radius of the 4-sphere increases at velocity 4v , distance D

increases as

In the “Big Bang” model, the quantity 0HR c H= is referred to as the Hubble radius, which has the meaning of the distance travelled at velocity c since the singularity when all objects in space were at one point (for 0 70H = [(km/s)/Mpc](3,4), 01 14t H= ≈ billion light years). Applying the Hubble radius equation (5) gets the form

which implicitly means that the expansion velocity of space in a fourth dimension is the velocity of light. If space is described as the surface of a 4-sphere the radius of curvature, HR , has the meaning of the 4-radius of the sphere, 4R .

Identifying the observed expansion of space as a consequence of the motion of space in the fourth dimension, the expansion of space as the surface of a 4-sphere, turns the time-like line element, cdt , of the theory of relativity into the distance moved by space at velocity c in time differential dt the direction of the 4-radius 4R ,

4ds cdt= (7)

Accordingly, time in dynamic space can be considered as a universal scalar. The fourth dimension of spherically closed space is geometrical in nature, although it is not accessible from space.

Energy balance and metrics in dynamic space When the total mass in space and the gravitational constant are known the expansion velocity 0c of spherically closed space can be derived from the balance of the energies of motion and gravitation in the structure. The energy of the motion related to the motion of mass due to the motion of space in the direction of the 4-radius is what appears as the rest energy of mass in space

20mE" mc= (8)

and the energy of gravitation is the gravitational energy integrated across spherical space

which is equal to the velocity of light. The condition 0.55 cρ ρ= ⋅ is in a good agreement with present knowledge of the mass density in space(5).

The radial motion of space works against the gravitation of the structure, which means that the radial expansion velocity, and consequently the velocity of light, is gradually diminishing. The relative reduction of the velocity of light in the present state of the Universe is about 11

It turns out that the frequencies of atomic clocks and the characteristic wave numbers of the spectral lines of atoms are directly proportional to the internal momentum due to the motion of space at velocity 0c . Accordingly, the reduction of the velocity of light is not detectable in measurements based on the readings of atomic clocks.

A detailed analysis of the energy balances in space(1) shows that the velocity of light not only changes with time but it is also affected by the local gravitational environment which modifies the metrics near mass centres as

where 2GM rcδ = is the local gravitational factor. The first term in equation (13) describes the motion of space in the direction of the local fourth dimension showing the effect of the reduction of the velocity of space due to the tilting of space near a mass centre. The tilting of space also results in a lengthening of the line element dr in the radial direction (towards the mass centre). The lengths of transversal line elements perpendicular to the radial direction, shown by the last term of equation (13), are not affected by the mass centre.

Distance 0r in the last term in (13) is measured in the direction of non-tilted space (see FIG. 2). A minor difference between equation (13) and the Schwarzschild metrics is that the modification factor of a squared line element due to a mass centre in the first and second term

in (13) is ( )221 GM rc− instead of factor ( )21 2GM rc− suggested

by the Schwarzschild metrics.

As a consequence of the zero-energy principle, the tilting angle of

space, φ , can be related to the gravitational factor 2G M rcδ = as

( ) 2cos 1 1 GM rcφ δ= − = − (14)

accordingly, the local velocity of space in the direction of the local fourth dimension can be expressed as

( )0 0cos 1c c cφ δ= = − (15)

Motion in space Any motion in spherical space is central motion relative to mass equivalence "M at distance "R in the imaginary direction. The centrifugal acceleration created in the fourth dimension reduces the gravitational acceleration towards the mass equivalence "M . Accordingly, the reduced “effective” gravitational force can be expressed as

Denoting the direction of the fourth dimension as the imaginary direction (orthogonal to the three space directions) the total energy of motion, comprising the contributions of the motion of space in the imaginary direction and the motion in space in a selected space direction, can be expressed as a complex function

The imaginary component of the kinetic energy, "kE , in equation (22) is the work done in reducing the gravitational effect of the total mass in space on the object accelerated (see FIG. 4), which gives a quantitative expression to Mach’s principle.

oscillators are directly proportional to the internal momentum,

I Ip m c= , which explains the effects of motion and local gravitation (through c ) on atomic clocks and the spectral lines emitted by excited atoms.

Mass in dynamic space is the substance for the expression of energy. Mass as such is not an expression of energy. Mass is energised by motion. The rest energy of matter is the energy mass possesses due to the motion of space.

Cascaded gravitational frames Each gravitational centre in space can be regarded as a gravitational frame where the local geometry of space is described with metrics given in equation (13). Equation (14) relates the local tilting of space to surrounding space regarded as apparent homogeneous space of the local gravitational frame. The local gravitational centre with the associated gravitational frame can be regarded as an object in the parent frame, like the Earth with its gravitational frame in the solar gravitational frame. The local velocity of light is affected by the tilting of space in the local gravitational frame as shown by equation (15). By including the effects of the parent frames, the local velocity of light can be related to the imaginary velocity of hypothetical homogeneous space, 0c , which is the actual expansion velocity of spherical space

As shown by equation (17) motion in space reduces the internal mass of the object, the mass “available” for the expression of energy in a state of motion.

Electromagnetic radiation The requirement of conservation of energy demands that the conventionally defined Planck constant h is proportional to the velocity of light, or more precisely, to the velocity of space in the direction of 4R as

0 0h h c= (30)

where 0h is defined as the intrinsic Planck constant. The dimensions of the intrinsic Planck constant are mass-length, instead of momentum-length as in the conventional formalism. Accordingly, we can interpret the quantum of action as the quantum of mass, or the quantum of “substance for the expression of energy”.

Applying the intrinsic Planck constant, the energy of electromagnetic radiation can be expressed as

Since 0* *E c p= , the momentum of electromagnetic radiation can be expressed as

0rad rad

h mλ

= =p c c (32)

where c is the propagation velocity of radiation in space and radm is the mass equivalence of radiation. Electromagnetic radiation propagates at velocity c , which means propagation in a “satellite orbit”, where the central acceleration due to the motion in spherical space is counterbalanced by the gravitational acceleration of mass equivalence "M . Accordingly, the internal mass electromagnetic radiation is zero [see equation (17)] and the momentum of radiation in the imaginary direction is zero. Electromagnetic radiation has its momentum in the direction of propagation only.

The scalar value of the momentum can be expressed in terms of the frequency as

00rad rad

hp c h fλ

= = =p (33)

which also shows, that the conservation of momentum is equivalent to the conservation of frequency. The frequency of electromagnetic radiation does not change when the radiation travels from one gravitational state to another. However, the wavelength of the radiation is shifted due to the different velocity of light in different gravitational states. The frequency of an atomic oscillator, however, is directly proportional to the local velocity of light in the gravitational state of the oscillator.

An analysis of Schrödinger’s equation for the energy states of electrons in atoms shows that the dimensions of atoms are independent of the velocity of light and, accordingly, independent of the expansion of space. The Bohr radius of an atom, however, is related to the velocity of the atom in the local frame and in the parent gravitational frames as

where α is the fine structure constant. In fact, Balmer’s formula relates the emission wavelengths to the Bohr radius 0a which is affected by the motion of the atom through the reduction of the rest mass of electrons according to equation (26). Although the Bohr radius is not a part of the modern quantum mechanical model of an atom, the correlation between the physical dimensions of an atom and the characteristic wavelengths emitted remains the same.

The increase of wavelength given in equation (35) and the related reduction of the emission frequency is what the special theory of relativity explains as time dilation or transversal Doppler effect of moving oscillators and emitters. The frequency of atomic oscillators can be generally expressed as

where 0f is the frequency of the oscillator in hypothetical

homogeneous space and iδ and iβ mean the gravitational factors and velocities of the oscillator in the local frame and the parent frames.

The frequency of electromagnetic radiation does not change when the radiation travels from one gravitational state to another. However, the wavelength of the radiation is shifted due to the different velocity of light in different gravitational states. Accordingly, the gravitational red- and blue-shift of oscillators is a shift of frequency and the gravitational red- and blue-shift of electromagnetic radiation is a shift of wavelength.

The Doppler shifted frequency, received by object B moving at velocity Bâ in a gravitational state characterised by gravitational factor Bδ , of electromagnetic radiation emitted by oscillator A moving at velocity Aâ in a gravitational state characterised by gravitational factor Aδ in the local gravitational frame can be expressed as

An implicit message of equation (37) is that the motion of the source affects the frequency of radiation emitted in different directions like in the classical Doppler theory. When received in a frame moving with the source both the frequency and the wavelength observed are independent of the transmission direction relative to the direction of the motion of the frame. In the case of the famous Michelson-Morley experiment this

As a consequence of the conservation of energy, the radius of galactic and other orbiting stellar systems grow directly proportional to the growth of the 4-radius of space. A detailed analysis of the development of the surface brightness of stellar objects and the transmission of the light in expanding space shows that the observed energy densities of equivalent stellar objects depend on their redshift as

For high density objects with the effective emitting surface proportional to the square of the radius, n is equal to two. For a low density objects with the effective emitting surface independent of the radius, n is equal to zero. Best fit between equation (40) and recent observations is obtained when 1.5n ≈ (6).

in space. In the DU the propagation of light follows a spiral path. The background radiation thus appears as 360° degree propagation of light from the observer’s location in space (see Figure 7). The redshift of such radiation is

2 1 534.5z e π= − ≈ (41) which means that the radiation originated about 750 000 years after the singularity of the primary energy build-up when the 4-radius of space was about 23 million light years and the expansion velocity of space about 23 times the present velocity.

Build-up and release of the energy of matter in space The Dynamic Universe requires major rethinking of the development of the Universe. Instead of an instantaneous Big Bang, the primary build-up and release of the energy of the Universe is described as a zero energy process from infinity in the past, through singularity, back to infinity in the future. At all times the positive energy of

years and the corresponding time since singularity was 1 750000t ≈ years. The velocity of light at that time was about 23 times the present velocity of light.

motion is counterbalanced by the negative energy of gravitation. The primary build-up takes place through free fall of spherical space from the state when the 4-radius is infinite to the state when it is zero. In spherical geometry the process can be described as homogeneous contraction of space, culminating in a singularity where space is reduced to a single point. At singularity, the mass in space has infinite momentum, which throws the process into expansion. In the expansion phase the 4-radius increases back to infinity, while the energy of motion gained in the contraction is returned to gravitational energy. Free fall in the contraction phase and free escape in the expansion maintain zero total energy in the system

The build-up and disappearance of the observable physical reality is described as an inherently driven zero-energy process from emptiness at infinity in the past through singularity to emptiness at infinity in the future (see FIG. 8).

Equation (42) describes the two-fold nature of matter manifesting itself through the energy of motion and the energy of gravitation. The balance of the energies of motion and gravitation can be understood as the excited state of two complementary forms of energy. The excitation amplitude of the energies of motion and gravitation decreases as the Universe expands (see FIG. 9).

The rest energy, the energy of motion due to the motion of space in the fourth dimension, can be considered as a localised manifestation of the energy of matter, which is in counterbalance with the non- localised manifestation of the energy of matter, the energy of

Secondary energy build-up Mass centre build-up in space is designated as the process of secondary energy build-up, which occurs as local accumulation of matter into mass centres. The secondary energy build-up is driven by free fall of matter due to local gravitation in space. The conversion of non-structured matter into radiation can be assumed to occur when the velocity of free fall reaches the local velocity of light. That occurs when the tilting angle of space reaches 45° at distance 0 3.414 cr rδ = ⋅

Because the conditions in local singularities are essentially those described for the hot Big Bang, we can presume that the next steps in the conversion follow the procedures of elementary particle build-up proposed by the Big Bang theory. According to the DU model matter in its basic form, when energised by the process of primary energy build-up, has the character of dark matter. In the process of secondary energy build-up, a portion of the matter is converted into radiation, elementary particles, and material.

Summary Application of the zero energy principle on the dynamics of spherically closed, structured space leads to a detailed description of relativistic and cosmological phenomena in absolute co-ordinates of time and distance. The conversion from space-time in dynamic co-ordinates into dynamic space in absolute co-ordinates requires a major reorientation of our thinking about physical reality. Instead of being defined as a constant, the velocity of light is determined by the velocity of space in the fourth dimension. Mass appears as the substance for the expression of energy, and the rest energy of matter is the energy possessed by matter due to the motion of space.

The Dynamic Universe model relates any energy state of an object to the state of rest in hypothetical homogeneous space and produces mathematically closed expressions for the ticking frequencies of atomic oscillators in any state of motion and gravitation. It also gives closed mathematical expressions to the cosmological and local geometry of space and the propagation of electromagnetic radiation both at cosmological distances and in local space — all in a complete agreement with observations.

Basic assumptions The theory of relativity and standard cosmology model

Dynamic Universe

Space-time is a four-dimensional continuum with local structure dependent on the distribution of mass dens ity.

Space is a dynamic spherical structure closed through the fourth dimension. Local mass centres result in certain topology in space in the fourth dimension.

Time is considered as the fourth dimension.

The fourth dimension is geometrical in nature, but unaccessible from space.

In cosmological scale space is homogeneous, i.e. it looks essentially the same at any location (the cosmological principle).

In cosmological scale mass is uniformly distributed in space, which together with the spherical symmetry makes space look essentially the same at any location.

Gravitational interaction between masses is actuated by gravitons propagating at the velocity of light.

Gravitational interaction between masses is instantaneous. It can be described as an interaction between mass objects and space shaped in the fourth dimension.

The velocity of light is a physical constant and the maximum velocity by definition. Mathematically, the velocity of light is made the maximum velocity in space through the Lorentz transformation.

The velocity of light is determined by the local velocity of space in the fourth dimension, which, owing to the dynamics of space, is the maximum velocity achievable in space. The maximum velocity of light, which occurs in hypothetical homogeneous space, is determined by the state of the Universe

Energy is conserved in all interactions in space. Total energy is zero.

Mass is an expression of energy. Mass is the substance for the expression of energy.

The total energy in space appeared instantaneously in the Big Bang and it stays the same forever or until the Big Crush.

The total energy (of all mass) in space can be expressed as the energy of motion gained against the release of the gravitational energy in the contraction and lost back to gravitational energy in the expansion of space.

The flow of time started at the Big Bang. Locally, the flow of time (proper time) depends on the state of motion and gravitation of the object.

Time is eternal and absolute in nature, but the characteristic frequencies of objects (like the ticking frequencies of atomic clocks) depend on the energetic state of the object.

Physics The Theory of relativity Dynamic Universe Rest energy is a property of mass.

Rest energy is the energy of a mass object due to the motion of space in the fourth dimension.

Any state free of acceleration can be defined as a state of rest.

An energy frames defines the local state of rest, in which an object has the imaginary velocity of space only.

The explanation of the zero-result of the Michelson-Morley experiment requires length contraction and time dilation.

Delay of light near a mass centre is the cons equence of two phenomena: the increase of distance and the reduction of the velocity of light near a mass centre.

Cosmology Standard cosmology model

Dynamic Universe

The Universe came into being in a “Big Bang” about 12-18 billion years ago (according to the inflation theory 8-12 billion years), and obtained its energy instantaneously as in a quantum jump. The energy created in the Big Bang has been conserved as a constant.

The energy of the Universe was built up gradually in contraction of space through a balanced interaction of motion and gravitation. The primary energy build-up culminated in a singularity 8-12 billion years ago when the contraction of space was turned into expansion. As space expands, the energy built up in the contraction phase is gradually released. The energy of the motion of space appears as the rest energy of matter.

The future of the Universe is unclear. The expansion of space continues forever if the density of mass in space is less than or equal to the Friedmann critical mass density. Alternatively it collapses in a “Big Crunch”. The total energy in space is conserved in all alternatives.

The expansion continues to infinity but in the process the energies of motion and gravitation are consumed, and all expression of matter and radiation terminates. The Universe began in emptiness at infinity in the past and it returns to emptiness at infinity in the future. The mass density of space is 0.55 times the Friedmann critical mass density.

Light propagates along geodetic lines of space-time. The geometry of the geodetic lines at cosmological distances is not defined.

Light follows the shape of space. At cosmological distances the propagation path of light is a spiral in the fourth dimension.

Observations on the magnitude and red shift of distant objects suggests that that the expansion of space is accelerating, which required a new unknown force against gravitation.

Observations on the magnitude and red shift of distant objects are in a complete agreement with the DU prediction without new assumptions.

Matter identified through its gravitational effect alone is referred to as dark matter. There is no theoretical description of dark matter.

(Dark) matter is the basic form of energised mass, which is converted into visible, structured material during the secondary energy build-up in space.

The background radiation observed in space is “afterglow” of the “Big Bang”.

Background radiation is focal point detection of light propagated through a 360° path in spherical space. The

observer today sees light emitted from his own location in space about 750 000 years after the singularity.

The geological estimates of the age of stellar systems approach or exceed the structural age of the Universe estimated from the Hubble constant.

Geological estimates of the age of stellar systems are vastly reduced when the earlier higher energy state of the Universe is taken into account. A good match with the structural age of the Universe results.
